Snow and Scallops

Matt and I got home a little while ago from my school – tonight was the male beauty pageant and I had a great time watching some of my students do magic, dance like Michael Jackson, sing, play guitar and perform some hilarious parodies. 

Before the show, a few of my co-workers, Matt and I headed out to Stoneforge Grill for some dinner.  We have been there a few times before and enjoyed our meal – tonight was no different.

I started the meal off with the house salad with thousand island dressing.  Now I typically don’t get thousand island but for some reason today I was craving it – it was delicious and definitely a treat.

Look at this gorgeous presentation!

I tried to push some of the dressing to the edge of the plate before I cut into this cucumber.

  Do I get scallops everywhere I go?  I seem to lately don’t I? 

These were awesome.  The scallops were very tender and the pasta was delicious.   Surprisingly I left most of the veggies – they didn’t taste so good – the tomatoes were not too ripe and the peppers didn’t add much to the dish.  I ate all the scallops and about 1/2 the pasta.  Amazing.  I had quite a full belly. 

I forgot to show you my afternoon snack.  Apparently I left about 3 bites of Oikos Vanilla Greek Yogurt in the container.  Why?  Who knows.  I added some Pomegranate Arils, Quaker Oatmeal Squares, Kashi Island Vanilla and Back to Nature Chocolate Granola to the container – then I added some milk because there clearly wasn’t enough yogurt to coat my cereal.

So it is snowing out.  By school, there was probably 3-4 inches.  At my apartment, maybe an 1-2.  It is so odd – I live less than 15 minutes from my office but the difference in weather is so amazing sometimes.  I’m hoping the snow stops soon – I need to get a run in tomorrow and I am crossing my fingers I can do it outside.
